Hi

I recently bought Windows 7 32 bit professional.
Unfortunately Postgresql 8.4.3 did not install or work.

Tell us about your problems, error messages and logs, then we can help you to get it working.

I started searching Google and found that a lot of other people have the same problem.

Many others have it working, but that's normal and that's why they didn't post any message on a forum.

Will there be a minor release to fix the problem?

What problem? Tell us about it!

Will it be fixed in the upcoming version 9.0?


I had a problem installing my software (which includes Postgresql) on a Windows 7 demo laptop last week. It turned out that accounts that are designated as administrator do not have enough privileges to install as a service. Without wishing to go delving into the config tools and wasting any more time I logged out and then back in using the Administrator account that came with W7 (no password - security, what security?), ran the setup again and everything worked fine. The services were then available to all other accounts.
HTH, just my experience.
